Research direction

Start by locating the cargo-pgrx configuration and build entry point used for PostgreSQL version support, then reproduce the Nix build described in the issue. Done means VectorChord can build against PostgreSQL 19 without the unexpected '--pg19' error; verify the result with the relevant build or integration checks.

Description

Creating this issue to track support for PostgreSQL 19. No rush since it is still in beta, just wanted to have something to link back to.

cargo-pgrx needs to be updated to 0.19.0+: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/531301
